"It is a red golden retriever. Watch the little bitch - mine ate the siding off of the house." Whaaaat!!
Never heard of one of those, Damn, I know the North Koreans eat trees and such but a house?
This Golden Retriever kid better straighten out or back to the state it goes.
Humanitarian I might be but I can't afford to replace cedar shingles.

Part of an air duct like that broke off my Chevy when I went into a pothole and the frame hit the pavement but the car bounced out and the air dam seems to work okay what’s left of it. It was loud, it was harsh, but it’s a Chevy with at least 50% genuine American parts so it is okay.

They suffer from extreme seperation anxiety, and chew up everything when left alone.
I have heard that peaople have had to muzzle them, to preclude their eating rocks.

"They suffer from extreme separation anxiety, and chew up everything when left alone." I'm not quite following though, she has been spending a lot of time with this other kid called a Black Labrador. (Lab for short?)
Not sure where she came from either but man can that kid run! I figure the Olympics are in her future.
Maybe I can pull one of those endorsement contracts.
I could be looking at early retirement!

Just take the old part to some automotive friend of yours and they should be able to put it back on for you for hardly nothing. The only thing they may need to buy is the fasteners that hold the piece in place, maybe a couple of bucks, if that. But if they are a mechanic, then they may have all that those fasteners. The fasteners are not anything special.
Do not buy a new piece until you try reinstalling the old piece. And by all means get the other piece underneath your car, that is loose, fastened back up.

Haven’t read through to see if this has been answered yet but my mechanic hubby says it’s a dust shield. Keeps debris out of the engine if I understood him right. He says it’s no biggie though & that these things are always getting snagged on something.

Thanks for asking him and I appreciate your response. It does appear it’s nothing major.

Isn't the rule of thumb that if something needs to move but doesn't, squirt it with WD-40. If something is moving but shouldn't, duct tape it. ?I use a new, improved all-purpose product: GorillaD-40. It lubricates and fastens all in one easy spray operation.

"Likely under body cladding. Cuts down drag and keeps out mud."Car shorts eh? Must have been going too fast and in a rut. Resulting drag heated the spandex up and got it brittle thusly shearing it off in the wind......

Shhh! It’s a secret.
It’s good stuff.
